Economic Law, Inequality, And Hidden Hierarchies On The Eu Internal Market, Damjan Kukovec

Michigan Journal of International Law

This Article has several aims. First, the aim is to show the continuing importance and relevance of antitrust and international trade lawyers in countering the concentration of power in the hands of the few or in some geographic areas of the world, if some of the assumptions of antitrust and trade are adjusted. Second, the goal is to articulate a particular analysis from the perspective of the (European) periphery. As the recent Euro crises and the near exit of Greece from the Union show, the European prospect of development for all has not arrived. This Article will articulate the privilege …

This paper focuses on anti-dumping developments in international trade since the beginning of the …

The Retroactive Application Of The Antidumping Act Of 1921, Thomas E. Johnson

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

In 1921, the United States Congress enacted the Antidumping Act which provides for the imposition of dumping duties on imports sold to United States merchants at prices below their fair value.

Mr. Johnson examines the retroactive provisions of the Act and its regulations, the case law surrounding those provisions, and the constitutionality of the provisions. Against this background, he concludes that the retroactive application of the Act, particularly …

The Antidumping Act: Its Administration And Place In American Trade Policy, James A. Kohn

Michigan Law Review

It has now been forty years since the present Antidumping Act was passed. During that period certain administrative interpretations and procedures have developed. This discussion will not attempt a general exposition of the act, but rather will examine key terms which are not defined by the act itself, the administrative decisions interpreting these terms, and the soundness of these decisions when tested against the purposes of the act. In analyzing these decisions, not only the factors that influenced the original passage of the act must be considered, but also the events which have occurred since the passage of the act …
